Overview
The course is offered as a stand-alone course. It is included in Pre-Master in Religious Studies and Theology, 60 ECTS. This course introduces students to the Bible as a literary collection that emerged from concrete historical situations and served concrete communities. Rather than examining biblical books according to the classical schema, the course explores why and how these texts arose in response to the social, political and material realities of their time. Students explore the formation of the Hebrew Bible against the backdrop of the ancient Near Eastern world and the emergence of the New Testament writings within the social and literary fabric of Greco-Roman culture. In addition, this course engages with early Christian writings, through which students examine how early Christians received, used and interpreted Scripture.
